Ronan and Qiu Wanshan stood side by side in the visiting corridor, looking through the glass at the distorted nest of Vulcan ants in the lava, which is the materialized structure of the "Blood Soul Temple". Ronan still led the topic, but it was habitual. The ground jumps and swings
"The bleeding season here in Spring City seems to be different from the rushing tide in Xia City. Our side is affected by astronomical tides, but here in Spring City, I remember some research said that it seems to be based on the estrus cycle of the spring wilderness abnormality. Introduction? But it doesn’t seem to be so obvious in other places.”
"Chuncheng is not obvious either."
Qiu Wanshan clasped his hands behind his back and chuckled, "The era of distortion has lasted for almost fifty years, and many related studies are still subject to conjecture. I have been working in Spring City for thirty or forty years, and I can't say that I can figure out the laws of the bleeding season. You see, it is said to be spring, but sometimes the twelfth lunar month of winter begins before the beginning of spring. Sometimes in April and May, it is almost the beginning of summer but has not yet come. This year, it started in May.
"There is also a duration. This year is considered short, only two months; but in the past, there were three months, four months, and half a year. If you follow the so-called 'laws', Spring, Yan, and An , it will be a lot more comfortable if we level this line."
Ronan said "Yeah". His mother died during the extraordinarily long "bleeding season" in 1980.
He knew clearly that "Bleeding Season" was not that simple, but he still came up with an unreliable research conclusion, and what he wanted was Qiu Wanshan's statement.
Therefore, he immediately asked, "Mr. Qiu, is there really no pattern in the bleeding season?"
"The pattern of bleeding season is that it always happens every year."
"Use 'year' to compare?"
Qiu Wanshan looked over and laughed again, "At my age, my brain has become rigid. If I completely throw away conventional concepts, I will be even more confused... Therefore, I still have to count on Professor Luo and more young people to study it." Well, don’t be surprised if you rely on your elders and sell your elders.”
At this time, Ronan would not let Qiu Wanshan get away easily. "So Mr. Qiu also thinks that the real regular occurrence of things like the 'Blooding Season' may not be within the regular world we know?"
"Professor Luo, are you talking about the fog maze?"
"Why not Deep Blue World?"
Speaking of this, Ronan and Qiu Wanshan laughed together.
The latter sighed again while laughing, "I still don't understand the Spring City area, let alone the others? Sure enough, things like 'laws' are too heavy for me, who is so old and old."
"Mr. Qiu is too modest."
Ronan confirms that until now, he still has not grasped the key qualities of this man.
The magic talisman active in the spiritual ocean and the altar spider web did not involve any loose person.
Overflowing emotions.
This is amazing.
If the Blood Demon guy asked him to draw Qiu Wanshan's card, he would probably refuse, lest he go back and rework and ruin the sign.
He looked at Qiu Wanshan again and continued with a smile, "Let's not talk about patterns, but trends. Do you think the intensity of the 'bleeding season' near Spring City in recent years has gone up or down?"
"Go lower." Qiu Wanshan answered very decisively.
"Oh?" Ronan thought for a while, "Is it because the Deep Blue Platform was born and launched a full-scale counterattack?"
"Maybe." Qiu Wanshan smiled and said coldly, "In addition, Professor Wu and Professor Ding's 'wheel hypothesis' is also very interesting."
"New plane migration theory?"
Ronan still remembers the academic lectures given by Professors Wu and Ding at Zhixing College that he missed.
This series of research seems to be funded by His Majesty the Emperor Wu.
How did you say that rather poetic description?
Soon, Ronan heard Qiu Wanshan's whisper: "A wheel, a huge wheel, ran over our time and space. The track at the back end was in Spring City, and the Xia City at the front end has heard the thunder of Yin Yin."
Ronan narrowed his eyes and focused on Qiu Wanshan.
At this moment, Ronan vaguely caught some "traces" - the 3 of Spades, who had always been so secretive, had extremely subtle changes in his mood and energy.
However, Ronan was not sure whether Qiu Wanshan accidentally leaked this or did it on his own initiative?
There was silence for a moment in the visiting corridor, then Ronan changed the subject again, "I dare to ask Mr. Qiu, what is the trend of the distorted route of the Vulcan ant colony in this volcanic area?"
Qiu Wanshan still responded with a smile, "I'm not good at this. If you take a quick look, you can see that there are thousands of flowers blooming, each with a branch, but they are still on the same tree. The flowers are clustered together and cannot be seen clearly."
Ronan nodded in approval and said, "What Mr. Qiu said is true. It seems that there are more than 1,400 species of Vulcan Ants. Each branch is tens or hundreds of kilometers apart. They are very differentiated, but they are still covered by a social consciousness framework. They are still based on The core of the aberration nest is respected. And the Vulcan Ant main nest is not particularly powerful. In the past, it was often forcibly broken into and harvested for research. However, no matter how many rounds it was harvested and grown back, it still maintained the same pattern... One can’t help but wonder that these headquarters, branches, and main nests are not just a gimmick to fool people.”
"Vulcan Ant, who are you trying to fool?"
"That's right. All I can say is, it's to fool a smart-aleck like me."
"Serious words, serious words."
"That's not all." Ronan continued, "The group consciousness led by the queen ant is originally crude, and its scale is not enough to form a strong enough interference with surrounding materials. It can control living bodies and manipulate high-temperature lava. Shaping should have some kind of mediating effect. It turned out that when I studied it before, it was because of the path dependence of the 'spiritual side' that it helped them adjust the structure of social consciousness. As a result, the more I studied, the more I went astray. I'm really ashamed."
As he said that, Ronan took a picture of the transparent glass inlaid on the visiting passage, looking quite annoyed.
He wasn't being hypocritical, but he was really upset.
What he said, especially the "medium" thing, can already be seen in the "Virtual Brain System Instruction Manual", which is actually the design manual for external neurons.
It's just that the knowledge points there are too detailed and boring, there is too much prerequisite knowledge, and the usage requirements are too high. Moreover, it tends to the practical application of "movement and core production", which is not an area that Ronan is good at, so the research progress has been very slow. . After Ronan discovered the database built into the external neuron, he was quickly attracted by the more logical and systematic articles in the database, and unconsciously put the "Instructions for Use" in a corner.
Especially after his experience at the relay station, knowledge systems that were highly compatible with his spiritual path, such as the Fantasy School and the Ancient Chinese Characters of Ceremony, took up most of his time and energy, leaving him with no time to study in depth. Unfortunately, the information about the "medium" that may exist between the Vulcan Ant and the surrounding environment is hidden in the "Materials" chapter of the "Instructions for Use".
Ronan had touched on it earlier, but because at that time his main focus was on how to control the deformed nest of Vulcan Ants and solve the practical problem of Gong Qi using limited conditions such as Jintong's "Aura Seed", he missed the opportunity to explore the root cause. The timing of asking for details, and the follow-up was further and further down the spiritual road, so that the clue was completely forgotten.
Now that I think about it, it was so inappropriate.
Well, objectively speaking, this problem arises because what Liang Lu left behind was the "Instruction Manual", at most it was the "Movement and Core Design Manual", not anything else. The successor who had no hope of having external neurons on the earth would gradually gain a systematic understanding of the central star region and the light-containing galaxy.
Just as he completely obscured the history of the Hanguang Galaxy after its evil catastrophe.
So, why?
What Ronan couldn't figure out during the exam just now
When I first returned to Earth, it was difficult to have an epiphany.
It's just his psychological activities that Qiu Wanshan, no matter how shrewd and experienced, can't see through. He can only discuss the matter, which can be regarded as praise. "Professor Luo means that there is something between the Vulcan Ant and the surrounding environment..."
"It could also be that there are Vulcan ants between that thing and the surrounding environment."
Ronan turned around and smiled at Qiu Wanshan, "Besides, the category of 'surrounding environment' is still too large and needs to be refined. Of course, this is just a new idea of mine, and the specific details need to be carefully studied."
"I think, Professor Luo, you have everything you need to know."
"No way, what I call 'medium' can be regarded as creating a link out of thin air. After all, it is a taboo in research. So I still want to start from the surrounding environment and see the environmental changes around the volcanic area in the past few decades. 'Of course the incident is typical, but we should also pay attention to other aspects, especially information on the level of time and space turbulence. If there is any, that would be the best."
Qiu Wanshan answered readily, "If nothing else, the Spring City Branch can help Professor Luo collect and sort out the information for future investigation."
"Then I'll trouble Mr. Qiu."
Next, the two talked about the "Dream World" game and other hot topics closely related to Ronan.
Qiu Wanshan was very curious about when a major version update would be carried out, and he also asked Ronan intentionally or unintentionally about his thoughts and designs after "pushing the wall". UU reads a book. nt But he ignored the particularly sensitive concepts such as Baifengjun and Skeleton Demon King. Obviously he didn't want to bring out Li Wei over there and clearly express his position.
Ronan wasn't as casual with him as he was with the Rubik's Cube. He just chatted with him if he wanted to, and didn't press on if he didn't want to.
In this way, after chatting for a while, Qiu Wanshan took the initiative to say goodbye.
Ronan also naturally expressed his thanks, which finally settled the matter of Spring City's "protection" of the volcanic area during this period.
Qiu Wanshan may not care, but Chuncheng's military and political system still has to show appreciation. By extension, it can also be regarded as a rough standard for the many hot spots brought about by his "live broadcast push wall", the problems derived from it, and the corresponding social governance... Let's call it a standard.
Ronan believes that his attitude and standards will spread at an extremely fast speed among the military and political systems of major urban areas, and will affect the wider society. As a result, the image and concept of "Ronan" have formed a deeper imprint in people's minds, especially in terms of his style of doing things.
With a beginning and a certain foundation formed, the follow-up may become particularly smooth.
